    North Dakota

    In this episode I interview Tammi Kromenaker, the director of the only abortion provider in North Dakota, Red River Women's Clinic, along with Kristie Wolff, the executive director the North Dakota Women's Network, and a number of other fierce advocates in the state.  Learn what it means to be "North Dakota Nice" and how advocates have fought to save the ERA in ND and to oppose a number of restrictions.  We also discuss the ND "medication abortion reversal" bill that requires physicians to deliver false information to patients and is caught up in a lawsuit taken on by the American Medical Association.

Informative and Important

This podcast is incredibly informative and the information is so important to keep us all educated about issues that face women and their access to safe and healthy abortion practices throughout the United States. I was astounded by some of the current laws discussed in different states and how antequated our healthcare system and women's health practices really are in our country. I hope this podcast can shed light on these issues for others and help us to realize that change is absolutely a MUST for women's health in the US!

Makes You Think!

Let me say upfront that Alison is my daughter, and I am obviously very proud and of her. That being said, I have had reservations about some abortions and find it an uncomfortable topic, even though I am pro choice. Alison has made me think and provided me with so much information. Talking about my discomfort, I said to her, “But, I just love babies.” She said, “I love babies, too. I love to deliver babies. That’s not what this is about. Lots of people love babies!” She is right! I’m a health writer, and I focus on on/gyn, so I understand the medical issues well, but I did not know very much about this health issue. So, thank you, Alison for educating me, too!
